Summer Starting to End on the Farm

Image
It has been good spending time on the farm. I really had forgotten how quiet and dark it is here. It can actually be a bit unnerving. The leaf doodle bug was put to work in the forest. However, it looks like the car will be going back on the road. We can say it failed field trials,but that would only be partially true. The better utility value at this point is more suited to getting a teenager back and forth from high school. The mycological aspects of the farm did not disappoint. The pics of these shrooms are not photoshopped. The coal stove (very heavy) is loaded on the truck. It will be rebuilt in Georgia if I can save it. Coal stoves are increasingly out of production. When they are gone they are gone. The small wood stove is now in its place. The pic of the red sky in morning was indeed a warning of weather. We had strong storms and tornados in Upstate NY. Although I was travelling much that day in the area, I missed the worst of it.

It is going to be an exciting week. I continue to come to better terms with my Christian faith. Life is a great journey. Take it. I am spending some time in PA again this coming week. It was interesting protesting in Albany this past week and the discussions that followed. It takes quite a bit to get Calvinist conservative farmers to really speak out about injustice. There needs to be a significant weighting factor as compared to the professional protesters and what it takes to get these folks moving. I went to another aviation seminar this past week. This one was on the details regarding airframe icing. General aviation is a great place for someone like me who like to learn. There is no limit on the amount you can learn about flying. I worry about pilots who get the minimum ratings and take their rating privileges to the max. DJ's store is closer to opening. The Grand Opening is planned for Feb 20th! She has a lot of stuff to get done and I am proud of her and her business ...
